Royal Road Minerals Reports Positive Rock-chip Channel Results from Ash Shajjah, Saudi Arabia, Follow-up Drilling

About this update from Royal Road Minerals Limited
Toronto, Ontario - Royal Road Minerals Limited (TSXV: RYR) (OTCQB: RRDMF) ('Royal Road' or the 'Company') is pleased to announce encouraging continuous rock-chip channel sampling results from the Ash Shajjah prospect, part of its Jabal Sahabiyah gold exploration project in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia . Royal Road's exploration activities in Saudi Arabia are conducted through its local subsidiary, Royal Road Arabia Limited ('RRA'), a 50:50 joint venture with MIDU Company Limited ('MIDU'), a Jeddah -based investment group with interests across the mining, industrial, real estate, and utilities sectors. The Ash Shajjah prospect lies within the Company's Jabal Sahabiyah project in Asir Province , covering three contiguous Exploration Licenses totalling 284 square kilometers. Gold mineralization occurs within a broadly north-south striking, folded and doubly plunging, sheeted quartz-vein system. Continuous rock-chip channel sampling has expanded on previous results and has now extended the footprint of known gold mineralization at Ash Shajjah to more than 800 meters of strike, remaining open both to the north and the south. Selected results include ASCH01 - 11 meters at 0.9 g/t gold (open across strike) ASCH04 - 9 meters at 1.3 g/t gold ASCH06 - 10 meters at 2.2 g/t gold (open across strike) ASCH07 - 11 meters at 0.5 g/t gold (open across strike) ASCH14 - 20 meters @ 0.5 g/t gold ASCH16 - 8 meters @ 1.0 g/t gold ASCH17 - 6 meters @ 15.0 g/t gold (open across strike) Complementing the rock-chip geochemistry, the Company has completed detailed geological mapping, ground magnetics and radiometrics across the prospect. Integration of these datasets indicates a vein system that continues beyond current sampling, with intermittent sub-crop suggesting a potential cumulative strike length of up to 3 kilometers and aggregate widths averaging approximately 5 meters. Results to date point to the potential for an open-pit style scenario at Ash Shajjah, with overall grades influenced by the frequency and distribution of moderately plunging high-grade shoots; such as that intersected in ASCH17, returning 6 meters at 15.0 grams per tonne gold. 'Ash Shajjah is one of four known gold-mineralized vein systems within the Jabal Sahabiyah project area,' said Dr. Tim Coughlin , Royal Road's President and CEO. 'These systems can be challenging to trace on surface as they often appear as isolated outcrops within broad dry drainages or beneath colluvial cover. Our recent work has significantly improved our understanding of these gold mineralized vein systems, and we are looking forward to drill-testing these veins, and their concealed extensions, once mapping and modelling is complete in the coming weeks.'
